Griffon (Familiar)

Griffon is one of V's familiars based after the original Griffon.

Description
Griffon is an avian demon roughly the size of a hawk with a dark blue plumage. His beak is unique in that it is several beaks in a mandible configuration. He specializes in ranged attacks, though he is also capable of close-range moves. V can use Griffon to double jump, or glide with him, though the gliding only last for a few seconds before V starts falling again.

Personality
Griffon is an extremely talkative, foul-mouthed, and wisecracking bird who constantly insults other characters or makes digs at their expense. While not above playfully teasing V and playing pranks on him, Griffon constantly worries about V's health throughout the game and usually tries to talk him out of fighting when he doesn't have to.

Though loyal to both V and Vergil, all three familiars recognize their continued existence will only bring him pain, so once they have outlived their usefulness, they intercepted and attacked Dante, forcing him to kill them.

Trivia

 * Griffon's theme when Dante fights him in Mission 18 is a remix of Griffon's theme in Devil May Cry.
 * If you hold the Shoot button outside of a fight and while Griffon is not yet summoned, he will perch on V's arm until the button is released.
